who knows? Anyway, for apparently new faithful reader Kirkeleh, some stats from last year:
workout goal fell 330 min. short of hour/day, which was disappointing; a mere 52 seconds more per day, on average, would have done it. Books read: 204, which I think was down some, but I do have the job and the family and the kid. Favorite books I read:
fiction
Vila-Matos, Bartleby & Co
Gaiman and Pratchett, Good Omens
Lahiri, Unaccustomed Earth
Sánchez Piñol, Pandora in the Congo
Porkpie, The Corpse Wore Pasties
Castellanos Moya, Senselessness
non-fiction
Gage, The Day Wall Street Exploded
Harris, Pictures at a Revolution
Waxman, Loot
Weber, As They See 'Em (great book about the world of baseball umpires)
Weschler, True to Life (the most mind-expanding book I read all year)
Palmer, The Bloody White Baron (further proving my suspicion that Eastern Europe and Central Asia after WWI were about the weirdest spots on earth)
Wrong, It's Our Turn to Eat
Fleming, Anti-Communist Manifestoes
Finkel, The Good Soldiers
More later.
I've read Senselessness by Castellanos Moya, and it's really good. Wonderful writing by Moya. I truly recommend it
